EUPHRONIUS

This article appears in Volume V09, Page 898 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: EUD-FAT
EUPHRONIUS , the most noted of the
group
  of
great
 
vase
 -painters, who lived in Athens in the
time
  of the Persian wars, and worked upon red-figured vases (see
GREEK
  ART and
CERAMICS
 ). There is a monograph by W. Klein dealing with the artist. As all the
great
  paintings of
Greece
  have disappeared, we are obliged to trust to the designs on vases for our knowledge of
Greek
  drawing and
composition
 . Euphronius is stiff and archaic in
style
 , but his subjects are varied, his groupings
original
  and striking, and his mastery of the line decided. In their way, the vases which he painted will hold their own in comparison with those of any nation; for simplicity, truthfulness and charm they can scarcely be matched.
